Recent Rubicon/Mojave Deliveres, What shocks do you have?

[ASHEVILLE_3D]

Picked up my '23 Gladiator Rubicon and yes it has Red Tenneco shocks not Fox, didn't realize until I was home but didn't know if they were better or worse I just thought the fox had a better appearance

I've had my 23 for 2 weeks or so, the Red Tenneco have a more planted feel than the fox's did. The fox shocks felt more mushy. I thought it was going to be a downgrade getting the tenneco's, but I would disagree with that now.

EDIT TO ADD: Confirmed that 2023 Rubicon's no longer receive the Fox Performance Suspension. The 2023 Rubicon's receive "Red Tenneco Suspension" now.


A member recently took the order of their Rubicon to find it had Mopar red shocks. Usually, the shocks Rubicons had before Fox's. For those who have taken delivery recently, what shocks do you have? And for those with future deliveries, could you report here what you have? I would like to know if this is widespread or sporadic.

I ordered a 2023 JT rubicon thinking it came with fox ahocks I never checked. When I got it home I noticed they were Mopar shocks, disappointing. I ordered the fox 2.0 and replaced them and the ride is so much better. Also no engine cover that has the Jeep brand and engine type. Crazy. 64k and you get less and less.

Fox 2.0 is better than the old OEM Fox Rubicon shocks (have owned red Rubicon shocks, Fox Rubicon Shocks, Mopar 2.5", Fox 2.5 DST, Fox 2.0s, and Mojave shocks on 3 different Jeeps). I would probably take the red shocks over Rubicon Fox shocks. The Rubicon Fox shocks were very underdampened and mushy.

So these red tenneco shocks, are they the same red shocks that were previously on the JL rubicons and the JT willys?

And the same red shocks offered on all Jeep JK rubicons as well. I am sure there are differences, but, same manufacturer at least (rancho)

Nice! I've liked them on my Willys. This makes it even more of a "rubicon-lite"

If no one has posted a pic of them yet, here is a red front shock with number from the last ‘23 Rubicon Gladiator on my local dealers’ lot. No idea production date. It’s in that greenish yellow, slow sellers around here. It’s a different number than the fronts on my new ‘23 Willys
